As I recall, and assuming it's the same as Dev2000 1.5 on V7.3.2, you can't directly call a procedure from your form but you can directly call a user-named trigger of the form from the menu.

I suggest creating a small form level usernamed trigger which, in turn calls your procedure.

Youc an then call the trigger wusing the EXECUTE_TRIGGER builtin. Of course you may want to play wiht a few globals to cope with any parameter passing to you procedure though.
